Brand awareness is something built over time. Think about it … not everyone who hears your radio or television ads are actively shopping for a vehicle every time they are exposed to them. That does not mean, however, that this is a wasted advertisement; in fact, it’s quite the contrary. When you’re advertising, you are making a sound investment in the future growth of your dealership.

Brand Awareness: Before the Sale

At some point in most adults’ lives, they will need a car. When that happens, they will typically buy from a dealership they knew about before their actual need for a vehicle came about. So it stands to reason, building brand awareness increases the probability customers will know who you are. Because they know who you are, there is a greater likelihood they will buy from you!

If your dealership has not built brand awareness – and therefore isn’t top-of-mind with your local community – there is no question the odds are not in your favor. Consumer studies show that eight out of every 10 consumers turn to brands they are familiar with when a need for something occurs.

You will know you have reached the pinnacle of brand awareness when your local community immediately recognizes your ads just by seeing your logo, hearing a familiar voice, or recognizing your jingle (if you have one).
